The Hon, W. w. Morrow.

AS some of our Democratic confreres
have been talking about the Indictment OF
Francisco for corrupt practices, we re.
produce the following from the San Fran.
cisco NctU Age:
The careessuess of the public in failing tc
distinguish difference in names sometime,
leads TO embarrassing confusion.
In tins city there are two gentlemen by tue
name Of Morrow, who have become known
the public. One IL the Hon. Wm. W, Morrow
paSt grand master of the Independent Order
Of odd Fellows of this jur.sdiG,ion ana q.
present II representative iu Congress from San
francisco. He isR lawyer by profession and
in every way an honorable aud upright gentle
man. The other is Robert f, Morrow, gen.
tiemGn of wealth, who has been concerned iu
many large mining enterprises, nni is now
interested extensively. we believe, In stree
railroad property in sau Francisco. He h4,
'ately been indicted for corrupt practices IN
connection with case he had In court, ana
has thereby been brought into uuenvlaol,
uOturieiy
II is plain these two gentlemen are not the
same persons. Ins fact, they are In no way re.
lated TO each other, and yet there are those
who carelessly c0nfound the identity OF the
two as one person. 1t Is not our purpose to
reflect upon the character of Robert f. Nor
row, who may be very correct person for all
we know, but we take the liberty OF advising
our readers that the Hon. Wm. W. Morrow has
never been charged with any offeuse against
the law or good morals, and is not likely TO be

New yor,, Republ,oan Platform.

3, We adhere firmly TO the American policy,
under whose operation unexampled prosperity
and thrift have blessed the land, and hold
that any changes to be made in the tariff laws
should be made by the friends Of those laws,
and in the interest of protection of labor on
our own soil and of home markets. not by or
in the interest of free trade propagandists not
for the benefit of foreign producers and foreign
labor. National taxation should be so ad-
iusted as to raise revenue sufficient for an
economic and wise administration of the gov
eminent, for the payment of the public debt
for the development of national resources,
and for national defense; but any reduction
should be so made as not to impair the pros.
pcrityof home industries American markets
must be preserved to the products of American
labor and capital, and protected from foreign
encroachments.

preference for this herb to the deposits OF min.
erals, this august body voted solid to instruct
its delegation, then in Congress, TO frame
bill to increase the tariff and protection on
sumac and at the same time frame another
bill to decrease the tarin on iron, COAL nc. In
this way the Virginia delegation In Congress
were instructed to enter strong and united
protest against all measures that wonld eX-
tend protection and increase the facilities of
manufacturing, except system OF protection

that this association Of lawmakers did not at
the same tin add two more Of the products OF
Virginia deserving special protection anl
iavors-persimmon and hooppolesl Instruct
ing the congressional representatives to extend
epceial protetti to sumac, hooppoes, and
persimmons IA puckerlng luxury would have
completed the consistency and progressive
tendency Of that Democratic legislature.
For more than half century Virginia has
been governed by this kind of sumnc states

A ihass meeting Of the Rsp5dbhc o..

made permanent chairman and W. S. Hal

glorious victory, except and unless his
opponent should be declared elected by

three discreet Republicans, whose duty 1t
shall be to devise and recommend to the
chsirman Of the county committee some

sumac Statcsmanship.

To give an idea Of the general average
intelligence OF the Virginia Bourbon De-
moeracy, we print below letter from an in
teiligent correspondent, showing that the
Democrats of the Virginia legislature ia
1871 passed instructions to the Virginia
members of Congress to vote for tariff
bill TO decrease the duty on iron and to iu-
crease II on sumac.
This is fair sample OF the statesmanship
OF the Democrats Of Virginia OF the present
age-the successors OF the Jeffersons,
Henrys, Washingtons, Lees, and the other
men Of ability who made Virginia famous
In the past. 1t is this class OF men who rule
the old state, and who only obtain glimpse
OF what is good by camping on the trail Of
the Republicans as they did at tho Roanoke
convention, where everything that was
good in the platform is absolutely Republl-
can doctrine.
Do the people OF Virginia want any more
''sumac statesmanshIp 7" II they do not,
let them send the Democracy to the rear.
Here is what our correspondent says, aud
his statements az to the action Of the legIs-
lature are matters OF record:
EDITOR NATIONAL REpuBLIoAY: Apple.on's
and Chamberss Encyclopedias aud Lppin.
colts Gazetteer contain elaborate descriptions
the resources Of Virginia, but either from
Ignorance, stupidity, or inexcuslble careless
nets omit to mention that ornamental and
popular Democratic herb, sumac The above
standard publications make special mention
of the large and rich deposits of gold copper,
iron, coal, MARBLE porcelain, aud flre-brick
clay, oil, salt, soapstone, slate, sulphur, lead,
gypsum, &c. Yet the famous sumac is not
honored with place In the list Of Virglnia's
valuableand inexhaustiDle supply OF minerals
and other products, Even Gov. Wise, In his
four hours speech delivered in Alexandra In
1906, forgot to mention the almost unlimited
growth OF this fayorite herb. He gave vivid
description OF the 'sedge patches" over which
the "stub'tailed steer rOamed and fed, but not
Rword In favor or against the "sumac patches"
II remained for the "assembled wisdom OF
Virginia-the Democratic legislature in session
at Richmond In the year OF our Lord, one
thousand eight hundred and sevsnty-one to
make the discovery that sumac possessed far
more valuable properties and entitled to more
legislative aid and consideration than gold,
copper, iron, coal, and all the other resources
Of Virginia combined. To demonstrate how

AMERICAN builders build the tastes,

again demonstrated yesterday by beating
the crack Scotch cutter about four miles Ia
run OF th!rty-eght Years ago American
builders and designers built "the grey
hounds Of the ocean, and had almost the
carrying trade of the world. When steam
came to take the place of sails the Amerl-
can was still first American genius first
placed the iron plated war ship ailolt, aud
yet America has neither commercial nor
war navy. England, France, Germany.
Austin, Italy, all encourage their people to
build ships to carry the products of those
countries to "the uttermost parts OF the
earth" They give bountes TO the men
who build and sail these vessels. America,
with more coast line than all Europe, not
only refuses to aid It's shipowners and ship
builders but actually gives the preference
to foreigners as mail carriers AMI pays the
highest prices for second hand and second
rate foreign designs for Its war ships. 1t Is
time to change this. To stop paying $3.50.

Trying to Pick . Commission.

1t is stated upon good authority that
Secretary Bayard is having consderab,
commission, because Of the concession made
by him that the treaty OF 1918 is In full
force. This is directly opposite TO the
opinion expressed by both the House ana
the Senate, and, as the commission would
necessarily be governed by the Secrelary's
decision, considerable .ium would fall
upon the commission, resulting, very
probably, In political injury to its members

NAVAL CONSTRUCTION CORPS
Considerably Reduced In Numbers by
Retirement and Death.

Netlrement ana DeAth.
Naval Constructor Thomas T. Webb, who
is at the head of the list OF naval con
structors, with the relative rank OF cap
tain, and is experimenting the construction
of the new cruisers at Cramps yards, has
been ordered to appear before medical ex-
amining board on account OF ill-health. His
successor has not yet been selected, but
Chief Constructor Wilson stands next in
line of promotion to the actual rank of
captain, and Naval Constructor Wm. L.
Mintonye to the rank Of commander.
Constructor r. W. Boush, who holds
relative rank OF lieutenant, also retires
next month. The corps of constructors has
been considerably reduced In numbers OF
late years by rotirements and deaths, while
promotions from the grade OF assistant
constructor have been very slow, three OF
the officers of this grade having held that
rank without advancement for twelve years
past. For the reason that the half dozen
constructors remaining on the list are all
engaged in important duty 1t will probably
be necessary to detail an assistant con-
structor to superintend the construction
OF the new cruisers--a duty which Is now
being discharged by the constructor OF
highest rank In the service.
